are there pvp battlegrounds or arenas?

is there a real money shop by the way? I don't intend to spend any money on extra items and such

I'm also not that much of a hardcore player...I don't really care about endgame or gear hunting...most of the fun in mmos I get out of levelling up and exploring

could there also be a price cut or deal coming soon? I know that 16 euro for a digital version or 24 euro for a boxed version isn't that much for a game like this but would still be nice to know
